Im Setting Up A Flash Game Arcade
Oct 28, 2009Im looking at setting up what is essentially a flash game arcade. It will have other purposes, but flash games will be the focus point.
One of the first things I need to decide (along with a website name...) is which hosting company I want to go with. The only company Ive used before were Dreamhost, who had fairly good service but the uptime didnt seem all too great.
Initially there will only be a small amount of traffic, but I want the option to scale my hosting plan easily as I (hopefully) gain more visitors.
A lot of the game files will be lifted from the mochi games feed, but dont want to limit myself to games hosted by mochi, and I still want to be able to cope if I get any big traffic spikes. I also want to host a couple of other smaller sites on the hosting plan, but they shouldnt reach anything near the arcade.
MediaTemples Grid service looks great, but will probably be providing a far greater service than ill need for the first few months. I dont know how long it will take for me to get any decent amount of traffic, the majority of which ill be getting through self sponsorship of games, and I imagine its a fairly slow process getting a decent stream of visitors through that way.
I just dont wanna be paying $100's for serious hosting if I only get a few thousand hits in the first 6 months, which I imagine is likely!
Does anyone have any suggestions for good companies or starter packages? I dont want to pay through the arse, but I would rather pay more for a faster and more reliable service than go for the cheapest option - I want this to be a quality site.

Looking For Web Hosting For A Web Game
Oct 21, 2009First I would like to start by explaining my past and current situation.
When I was in High School I created a web game called Jinopets.com that was intended for me to learn how to Code PHP and to create things with a couple of friends.
However, within 3 days the game exploded and receiving large amounts of hits and users by nothing but word of mouth. Before I knew what to do, my host said the price of my next month was going to go up from $5 to $50, and at the time I knew nothing about web hosting and was making (barely) enough money from Google Ad-sense so I gladly paid them to continue working on the game.
As the site got larger, the host continued to ask for large amounts of money until I could no longer afford the game because the host was kicking me off of his hosting because I was simply taking up too much of his space.
(I was going to link my daily usage data here, but apparently I have to post 5 times first to add links.)
Now, there is more.
I am NOT hosting the same game, but I am expecting similar numbers just increased a bit higher with a few differences.
This game extensively uses PHP GD Image Functions to generate images for characters and map data. So I expect the server load to be much higher. But PHP GD Image Functions must be on the server, Which I do not anticipate to be a problem.
What is the recommended solution for web hosting? I live in a fairly remote area and could not host my own server, but I am afraid of being removed from a hosting plan again after what happened last time.
Hosting For An Indie Game.
Sep 21, 2008Looked around the site but I am so new to this that I could not tell if anyone had asked about a situation that was truly similar.
I am trying to find a good host for the promotion, download, purchase and forum for an indie game.
I estimate 220 gig per month at our peak. We have good programmers but we know nothing about web hosting. We just have one guy who made a website with Joomla once. (we will probably be using this to build our website.) We are looking for 30$ to 50$ range. Is this silly?
Have googled it but prices and services varied so wildly that I was forced to believe that some of them were lies.

Dedicated Hosting For A Browser Game
Jan 7, 2009i run a browser based game in (php/mysql/javascript) and i currently have noticing with the growing numbers of players that my shared hosting is not going to handle the load, obviously.
i am not sure if this is the right place to ask but are there any hosting companies out there willing to negotiate a deal where they provide hosting for such a thing in return of advertising?
we havent even began to advertise the game and expand it, it will reach thousands of players easely... we would need atleast 2 highend boxes to split up the database from the webserver.
Hosting A Game On Virtual Private Server?
Nov 11, 2007I'm wondering wether it would work to host a 40 players source server on the following VPS I am about to get
dual quad xeon
30Mbps
300gb monthly transfer
1024mb ram
OS:
CentOS
Fedora Core
Ubuntu
Gentoo
Slackware
Debian
I guess the 30mbps speed is fine but will the 300gb be enough and what about the RAM?
Which OS would be the best for game hosting and for someone that's new to linux?
Hosting Multiple Sites On The Same Hosting Account. Getting A Weird Redirect
Oct 26, 2009I have about 5 sites all hosted on my same hosting account. One of those domains is attached to the hosting account. I place my other domains in a folder of a sub-directory of my main domain. This has been working fine, up until today when i noticed a weird error. I give you a little example of how my sites are setup
my main domain:
www.maindomain.com
My other sites hosted in a sub-directory of my main domain:
www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/
www.maindomain.com/sites/site3/
How my other sites appear on the web:
www.site2.com
www.site3.com
This works fine for every page until i go to www.site2.com/index.php
It redirects to www.maindomain.com/sites/site2/index.php for some reason
Hosting Several Sites
Oct 21, 2009I am interested in your suggestions as to what I should do. I need a setup that will allow me to host several sites. They are mostly my own and low traffic. I do not offer hosting to any other folks, if so, i will set the sites up myself. I need mysql, email and virus checker, php, and firewall. I would like unix/linus hosting and am used to cpanel. Would prefer east coast hosting since many sites pertain to local areas there. I was thinkg of a reseller or webmaster package.

Nov 13, 2006Hi I've never worked with a dedicated host, and I was considering going with hostgator, because they provide managed hosting and cPanel, which I'm fond of.
This is not for my own sites, but for someone I work for as a programmer/webmaster. He has asked that I make the decision on this, even though I've basically advised against it, due to my lack of experience with dedicated hosting.
I've also looked at lunarpages, doesn't seem to be much different than hostgator. Here are links to their pages...
http://www.hostgator.com/dedicated.shtml
http://www.lunarpages.com/dedicated-hosting/
Does anyone have experience from either of these? I don't think the sites hosted on the server are going to be particularly high bandwidth sites (I don't really think they even need a dedicated host) ... do you think we'll be okay with a single 2.8 Ghz processor?
Also, does anyone have any advice as far as the number of sites hosted on the server? He wants to move ALL of them to the same server. Any thoughts on whether or not this is a good idea?
I know I've asked a lot here but I'm really getting into new territory. If you can provide any input on ANY of the above items, I'd greatly appreciate it.

View 24 Replies View RelatedBest Solution To Run Several Domains/sites On Your Hosting Account
Oct 10, 2009As a domainer I have several domainnames I like to add to a hostingaccount.
Many of the domains will have a blog or minisite.
At this moment I have a shared hosting account with unlimited domains.
But for seo reasons it is better not to link the domains/urls to eachother cause they have the same IP.
What can you recommend me to have all the domains on different IP's?
Or is there another way to do this,I heard something about c-class....
If I have to put the domains on different IP's on my shared hosting account I will have to pay $2,50 for an IP per month,this will be quite expensive.
